ADA requires employers to REASONABLY accommodate ONLY "qualified individuals with a disability" - workers who can still perform all work functions the employer calls essential.
If you can't perform ALL essential functions, no accommodation required. If you do not request accommodation by suggesting one, no employer duty to initiate reasonable accommodation.
If there is an accommodation that would let you perform all essential job functions, the employer makes a unilateral decisioin whether it is reasonable - inexpensive, does not violate a contract, or unfairly burden other employees.
